Preventing

On Friday June 8th, Microsoft has started to block offering up Windows 1803 Update to our customers as an automatic update (until the resolution is properly resolved).

If the following registry key is found on a Win10 machine, Microsoft will not offer up Windows 1803 as an automatic update.

Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Bentley

However, it will not block a user / admin who “checks for updates” from updating if they choose.
